Abstract
Background. The current demographic situation in Russia causes an increase in interest in different studies of the reproductive potential of married couples, including various forms of female infertility. Aim. The purpose of the study was a comparative analysis of psychoemotional and personal characteristics of women with identified and unidentified infertility factors. Materials and methods. Two groups were formed for a comprehensive psychological examination: the first group included 52 patients with verified causes of infertility, the second group comprised of 46 women with an unexplained cause of infertility (idiopathic infertility). For mathematical processing of results, in order to identify statistical differences between parameters in groups, the Mann–Whitney U-test implemented in the SPSS 26.0.0.1 program was applied. Results. The analysis showed significant differences between women of the studied groups in a number of scales of the meaning of life orientation test, the Freiburg personality questionnaire, questionnaires of socio-psychological attitudes, reflexivity, level of aggression, methods of the lifestyle index, neuropsychic stress, “personal differential”, the test of the level of depression and stress resistance. Summarizing the data obtained, it can be noted that patients with established causes of infertility use opportunities to adapt to the new realities of life, including professional achievements, social and intellectual activity, to resolve this situation and reduce neuropsychic stress. Women with idiopathic infertility are characterized by more pronounced neuropsychic stress, neurotic reactions, infantile qualities, regressive behaviors, immature types of psychological defense, decreased activity, and changes in motivational attitudes. Conclusion. The choice of tactics for individualized psychological correction based on psychological examination of patients in an interdisciplinary approach will contribute to improving the effectiveness of infertility treatment.
